its probably the bushing. my brothers e30 ad the same problem. only problem is theres like 3 different bushings and in order to get the right one you gotta order the whole kit.

Still not finding a bushing kit or something

Yeah it's the bushing, usually the one at the bottom causes this.

I don't even know how to do it on my trans.. The top looks sealed.. My miata and other 5 speeds had 3 - 4 bolts on the top and shifter comes off

pull that rubber piece off. its kinda hard to pull it out but it comes out. then you can see everything

Ok, so the "C" clamp then the whit plastic ring thing then it should all pop out with bushings inside?

Should be a little cup. They get worn out over time. Causes free play.
